A criminally underrated and explosively violent gangster saga from director Richard Fleischer, The Don Is Dead features one of the all-time great casts of tough guy actors: legendary multiple Oscar®-winner Anthony Quinn, Robert Forster (Jackie Brown), and Frederic Forrest (Apocalypse Now) are joined by Al Lettieri (The Getaway), Joe Santos (The Friends of Eddie Coyle), Abe Vigoda (The Godfather), Vic Tayback (Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore), Victor Argo (Taxi Driver), and Sid Haig (House of 1000 Corpses). Riddled with as many double crosses as bullet hits, The Don Is Dead is like a gritty 70s pulp paperback come to bloody life.

Jan 16, 2021 · The Don is Dead is one of a slew of mob-themed crime movies made in the wake of the phenomenal success of Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather, ...
The 1973 crime drama The Don is Dead opens with a rather neat bit of audience misdirection. In the dark of night, two men are shown waiting silently in an unlit upstairs room overlooking the street, from where they observe the arrival of a car from which two very shifty-looking men emerge. Movie convention tells us that these new arrivals are criminals being unknowingly watched by two detectives, who are going to either hold their position to see what the men do or call in the patrol cars they have sitting in waiting. It’s then that things take an unexpected turn. The car passenger enters a nearby phone box and waits, and one of the watching men then puts in a call, but not for police reinforcements as expected but to the very call box in which the goon is waiting. No words are audibly exchanged but it’s clear both parties have made contact, and the two observers are soon in the street and driving away with the other two men. Are these undercover cops working a case against unknowing criminals? Could be. A short while later they pull into an old barn and a spare wheel is removed to reveal a sizeable cache of drugs that the two observers test for authenticity and hand over a suitcase full of cash for. Then, out of the blue, three armed men with stockings over their faces appear and attempt to ambush the operation, but their actions are quickly foiled by a hidden figure in the rafters who opens fire on these would-be robbers, giving the observers the chance to grab their own we...
